Alter Markt, Central square and pedestrian area in Altstadt, Kiel, Germany.
The Alter Markt features an expansive paved surface surrounded by buildings that reflect different architectural periods of northern Germany.
Established in 1242, this marketplace originated as a central trading point in front of the old town hall of medieval Kiel.
The square maintains its traditional role as a marketplace where vendors sell fresh produce, continuing a practice that spans multiple generations.
Multiple establishments, including the Altstadt Brauhaus Tom Kyle, Burger Bank, and various retail stores, operate around the square from morning until late evening.
In 1877, the square underwent a structural transformation when existing building cellars were filled to create additional market space.
